It's beginning to smell a lot like Christmas.

Jude and I were "practicing" making Christmas cookies today. The tree is up and the stockings are hung by the chimney with care, so why not the cookies too!

Since Jude has plenty of playdough experience, the cookie dough was no challenge for him.

OK, so they weren't all perfect.


But they all tasted perfectly fine.

We're just starting to get some snow again, so perhaps it will start looking like Christmas too!

Hope this finds you all getting excited for the holidays, and the holiday baking.
